West Face: Before


Our pretty blue casa before deconstruction. The shoddily-built deck was an insult to Justin's deck sensibilities! One reason we bought the house is because of its large, private yard. The house itself had some of the ingredients that we required: a small footprint, two full bedrooms and two full bathrooms, a great Sellwood location, lots of South and West-facing windows, and a double garage that we hope to eventually convert into a studio/shop area. Things we didn't love: The spiral staircase, compartmentalized rooms and lack of insulation. Our cats may have enjoyed taunting the squirrels in the roof, but we we placed those in the "don't love" category as well.
